情報通信技術を利用する方法による国の歳入等の納付に関する法律案｜デジタル庁

This page outlines a bill enabling digital payment methods for national revenue collection, submitted to the Diet in February 2022. The bill aims to improve convenience for taxpayers by allowing information and communication technology-based payment methods, despite other legal regulations. It establishes two payment approaches: direct self-payment via internet banking and delegated payment through designated contractors accepting credit cards, electronic money, and convenience store payments. Designated contractors must remit funds by specified dates and maintain records. Contractors can be designated by government agencies and their designations may be revoked. The law takes effect within six months of promulgation.
